Sorry, I was not aware of your name. Your tag line is cool. :) So far I have written this much of code. The power directory has two directories and in those directories. There are 130 sub directories for each directories. I want to go to each sub directory and get a pattern from a text file in that directory. I am stuck with how to check directories and get that perticular pattern. mdp is a pattern. Your help will be greatly appreciated. 

 
  #!usr/bin/perl;
  
  use strict;
  use warnings;
  

  $| = 1;
 

   sub main{
 
   my $directory = '/nfs/fm/stod/stod1031/w.eakanoje.101/power/';
   opendir (DIR, $directory) or die "Cannot open directory $directory"
+;
  # while (my $file = readdir(DIR)){
   # next if($file =~ m/^\./); 
  # print "$file\n";
   # }
  
   my @out = glob("mdp*");
 
   print "@out\n";
   }
   main();
